What you have there is a versatile little 1/4" general service set. Mid 70's to early 80's in that configuration, the TMD and TMMD are 12 point. It's a great 1/4 set, has the right variety of extensions, and if you add a longer handle ratchet, it can spin just about every small fastener you're likely to run into. See if there's a date # on the ratchet, it's in the middle between on/off, under the lever.

Macother - thanx for your speedy & accurate reply.
As far as a date number on the ratchet, it looks like a "4" in-between the 'ON' & 'OFF' words.
Is that some kind of a date code?

That's right, it's 1984. Take a look under the resource tab here at Collecting SnapOn to find the date chart. Also take a look at the sockets, you may find what looks like spurious single numbers, they're actually the date stamp. Not all sockets have them, and in older sets, the numbers might not match. As for the 119TMPB, the nomenclature for the sets is difficult to follow, and it sometimes has a bearing on what's in the set, but it's usually greek to me.
